When I look at other couples and families there are several I have to wonder how happy/peaceful they really are. Once in a great occasion I do observe a couple that seems truly happy together. At peace, confident, comfortable, content and being able to communicate without words, those few I truly feel happy for. I feel joy and I am grateful knowing there are some that can have it and express it. Is that something I will be able to experience again? I do not know. I know right now I have issues I want to work on and a relationship is not on my list of things to do. I enjoy it in others when I see it. I choose not to compare, but instead observe and identify what I am feeling. Am I content? - Am I at peace? - Or do I want to share with someone in the program to get a better perspective of any issues I may want to work on?
